Listen "Inside Europe’s biggest journalism conference"
Episode Synopsis
Journalism conferences can be an exclusive and costly space. So last month, Beatriz took her microphone to Perugia, Italy to give you some sneak peaks of the biggest trends coming out of the International Journalism Conference.
This episode features three interviews she did in Perugia discussing;
What truly collaborative investigations between global north and south partners look like, with Andrés Bermudez Lievano a Colombian journalist from Latin American Center for Investigative Journalism (CLIP)
How can journalists nail vertical video on TikTok and Instagram with Enrique Anarte Lazo, a content creator and at Openly, Thomson Reuters Foundation’s LGBT platform
How journalists can empower policymakers and affected communities with solutions with Mia Malan, the editor in chief at the Bhekisisa health centre in South Africa.
And here’s a link to our investigation into Syrian Women on the Run that was just nominated for the European Press Prize.
